It is now verboten to mention “Chinese New Year” in the Biden regime
  • You certainly have one of the strangest takes I've ever seen a person make.

    I'm literally from Northeastern China and my grandfather lived in an ethnic Korean village when he was younger

    Don't pass off your granddad's lived experience off as your own lol. It doesn't do anything to strengthen your argument besides making you look cringe in an effort to look authentic.

    By your standards, Shogatsu is a different festival now that the date changed from the lunisolar calendar to the Gregorian. Obviously it's the same holiday tradition that is celebrated on a different date! I don't see how you're being so obstinate when it is crystal clear. People are not celebrating some calendar date, they are celebrating their traditional new year celebration that has been practiced for more than a millenia.

  • Japan's never been a vassal but you can correct me if I'm wrong on that part.

    You're so used to seeing it through the eyes of a statist that you can't even fathom that people celebrating their new year comes before some Chinese officials compiled the calendar. Is the event in question the calendar or the celebration? You're purposefully misconstruing the argument as if it's about the calendar, not the celebration that indigenous people do in Asia as you are so removed from the people that you cannot even see this point.

    Ethnic Koreans in China would probably be offended if you told them that they're actually celebrating a different New Years than everyone else.

    Through personal relations to ethnically Yanbian Korean Chinese people, I can tell you that it is false. You keep talking about some calendar system as if that is what marks holidays, and you're so far as to gone to claim now that Koreans celebrate Chinese new year and that Vietnamese Tet has origins in different system of calendar measurement instead of people celebrating their new year the way they always did. Are you even listening to yourself? So by your standards, if Occupied Korea measures their own calendar, it's suddenly a different holiday? You're talking nonsense.

  • You do realize that China as a multiethnic state celebrates minority cultures like those of Tibetan, Mongolian, Korean, etc. (Even Vietnamese although they are a much smaller ethnic group) A guy who puts as his username the American state Oregon talking about Chinese culture. What a joke. When your first thought is Occupied Korea and how they measure the lunar year instead of Koreans in Yanbian, you need to fuck off and educate yourself.

  • Point out where I said that we should call it "lunar new year" or that they do so in Asia. You can't. You're so wrapped up in your head that you're not even reading what I wrote and responding instead of shadowboxing an imaginary construct that you think you read.

  • I think you need to understand what I'm trying to say here. People on this website's so America-brained that they don't see the distinction between American politicians saying "Lunar New Year" on purpose to erase Chinese heritage of the tradition in America, and local people in Asia saying that they celebrate their variant of new year instead of celebrating Chinese cultural new year, which is literally cultural appropriation against Chinese people.

    That is why there wasn't a pushback against your comment when I read it, yet there is one against oregoncom

  • Vietnamese, Mongolian, and Korean new years all fall under the same day generally. They'll have to start saying that they celebrate Chinese New Year under your standards then.

  • I mean the Bourbon restoration happened sure but France objectivly does not have a monarch today so
  • It is the only good thing that France has ever produced aside from the Paris Commune and yet he is trying to erase it.

    Macron must hate France.

  • Locked

  • It was a bit kitty-cri-screm

  • Over half of Americans say they're not even close to financial freedom
  • That's because financial freedom is defined by social safety net (for non-bourgeoisie).

    It's not something that you earn as an individual, but achieved as a society.

  • Environmentalist :D
  • Every societal issue is a political issue comrade.

  • Marxist frog
  • Please press the communism button and give us better drop rates President Xi!

  • China helping to arm Russia with helicopters, drones and metals
  • Upset enough to write a whole article about toy drones michael-laugh

  • China helping to arm Russia with helicopters, drones and metals
  • One Chinese company sent 1,000 drones to Russia in the two months before the war, according to figures compiled by Molfar Global, an open source research organisation. That firm, Shantou Honghu Plastics, describes itself as a wholesaler of children’s toys on its website and social media profiles.

    They are toy drones lmao. Yeah they seem upset alright.

  • Car racism
  • But what if the car was from Japan? panting

  • This is the future liberals want
  • I thought you expanded your horizons beyond the mammalian already, SpiderFarmer.

  • Lemmy since the reddit collapse
  • Agreed. There is too much leftist infighting and splintering. We need to focus on defeating the liberal party.
